2 days post op lip fillers & I feel like a freak now. Any suggestions? (photos)

You need to be patient and allow any swelling to subside. After two weeks the majority of it should resolve. At that time you can see how you like it and discuss with your injector.

It is common to get swelling after fillers into the lips. It is not normal to have irregularities or severe swelling. If you are unhappy you should speak to your physician and have the area injected with hyaluronidase, an enzyme that reverses the hyaluronic acid filler. For the next injections, consider Restylane Silk with cannula injection, this technique will limit the pain, swelling or bruising after the filler placement. It often takes up to two weeks for swelling to subside on its own. Find an expert in filler injections for your future treatments. Best, Dr. Emer.

Hi Aime.  The swelling you have currently is quite normal for lip injections.  The lips are the area most prone to swelling with injections and you can often need 7-10 days for the swelling to go down.  Once you see the finished product, you may feel differently about them.With that said, we use Vitrase to remove Juvederm in situations where patients like you do not like the outcome.  To see an example of a Juvederm reversal in Los Angeles, take a look at the link below.

Hi there. Don't panic just yet. The lips can swell quite a bit after lip injections, and the degree of swelling will differ from person to person. The swelling can take up to 2 weeks to fully subside, but should get better with each passing day. If after 2 weeks you still don't like the way they look then your injector can dissolve the Juvederm quickly with some Hyaluronidase. Hang in there.

Significant swelling can occur after lip fillers. When you posted your photos you were only about 2 days out from the treatment. You can expect significant improvement in the swelling within 3-5 days of the procedure. In the worst case scenario, if you get to the five day timepoint and feel overdone some of the filler can be reversed with hyaluronidase. I hope this information is helpful for you.Stephen Weber MD, FACSDenver Facial Plastic Surgeon
